Leading researcher on development looks back over two tough years and forward to the future
Heaven Crawley last spoke to Funding Insight in May 2019, when Official Development Assistance-related research in the UK was in the ascendant.
UK Research and Innovation’s Global Challenges Research Fund was three years into its mission to increase the amount, quality and impact of work done in partnership with low- and middle-income countries. Six months before the interview, Crawley had been awarded nearly £20 million from the GCRF to set up and lead the South-South Migration, Inequality and Development Hub (Mideq) at Coventry University.
